Annual leave whilst off sick
I’ve just heard off a colleague that any leave you have booked whilst on long term sick is not given back, from August onwards, as part of the new agreement. I’ve tried to find it but I can’t. Can anybody confirm or deny this?

Illegal, can't be done. You can't be on annual leave and sick leave at the same time.

As Postman says above.
It would be illegal.
Rumours start all over the place when any new arrangement / agreements are put in place but in this case RM / CWU could never trump law in any company policy.

Re: Annual leave whilst off sick
A colleague at our office who was coming to a end of 2 months off came in with another 4 week sick note and informed the DOM he was going abroad on holiday the following week for two weeks. The Dom was livid and tried to cancel sick pay but nothing happened, the guy went on his jollies got full sick pay and got his two weeks leave back !
Apparently this is because the leave was booked before he went off otherwise the outcome might of been different.
